It lets Docker fetch ECR authentication through AWS credentials instead of requiring users or automation to run docker login for ECR registries. ### Projektgeschichte The project is maintained under awslabs and implements Docker's credential-helper protocol as docker-credential-ecr-login. Its README describes the helper as a bridge between Docker, Amazon ECR, and the normal AWS credential chain, including shared credentials files, environment variables, EC2 and ECS roles, assumed roles, credential_process, and web identity support. The changelog shows an initial 0.1.0 release in 2018, followed by endpoint and credential-chain work: FIPS endpoints in 0.2.0, PrivateLink endpoints in 0.3.0, assumed-role chaining and IRSA support in 0.4.0, ECR Public and IMDSv2 support in 0.5.0, AWS SSO and Apple Silicon support in 0.6.0, and later support for isolated, IPv6, and dual-stack ECR endpoint patterns. ### Adoptionsgeschichte The README documents installation paths across Amazon Linux, Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, Alpine, macOS Homebrew, MacPorts, Windows releases, mise, and Go source installs. That distribution spread reflects its role as a small but standard glue package for CI systems, developer laptops, and hosts that pull private ECR images. ### Wie es verwendet wird Users place docker-credential-ecr-login on PATH and set Docker's credsStore or per-registry credHelpers entry to ecr-login. After that, docker pull and docker push against private or public ECR registries use AWS credentials automatically, with optional AWS_PROFILE selection and local helper cache controls. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren For package maintainers, this package is interesting because it connects three packaging worlds: Docker's external credential-helper interface, AWS's credential provider chain, and distro or language package managers. A broken helper can make otherwise-correct Docker and AWS installs unable to pull private images, so version and path details matter. ### Zeitleiste - 2018: v0.1.0 tagged as the initial release. - 2019: Debian and Amazon Linux packaging tags appear in the upstream repository. - 2021: v0.5.0 adds ECR Public and IMDSv2 support. - 2021: v0.6.0 adds AWS SSO, EC2 metadata role assumption, and Apple Silicon support. - 2024: v0.8.0 adds C2S endpoint pattern support and experimental Windows ARM binaries. - 2026: v0.12.0 adds dual-stack ECR public endpoint support and SHA256 cache keys. ### Related projects - The project is directly related to Docker's docker-credential-helpers suite, Amazon ECR, the AWS CLI and SDK credential chain, Amazon ECS and EC2 IAM roles, and Kubernetes IRSA workflows. ### Quellen - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger-Risiko:** grün / niedrig - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
